Particle bombardment technology and its applications in plants

İbrahim İlker ÖZYİĞİT

Particle bombardment, or biolistics, has emerged as an excellent alternative approach for plant genetic transformation which circumvents the limitations of Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation. The method has no biological constraints and can transform a wide range of plant species. Besides, it has been the most efficient way to achieve organelle transformation (for both chloroplasts and mitochondria) so far. Along with the recent advances in genome editing technologies, conventional gene delivery tools are now being repurposed to deliver targeted gene editing reagents into the plants ...More

One Class of Systems of Linear Fredholm Integral Equations of the Third Kind on the Real Line with Multipoint Singularities

Avıt ASANOV

Using a modification of the approach previously developed by the authors, we show that finding solutions of one class of systems of linear Fredholm integral equations of the third kind on the real line with finitely many multipoint singularities is equivalent to finding solutions of a system of linear Fredholm integral equations of the second kind on the real line with additional conditions imposed on the kernels and the free term. The existence, nonexistence, uniqueness, and nonuniqueness of solutions of systems in this class are studied.

Molecular imprinted polymers: important advances in biochemistry, biomedical and biotechnology

Kalıypa SALİYEVA | Bakıt BORKOYEV

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are handmade receptors that mimic the binding of natural antibodies. In other words, MIPs can selectively bind to the target molecule and qualify as bio-inspired synthetic materials. Today, MIPs are used extensively and are being developed further for biological applications. High cost and time consuming techniques are compelling factors for the field of biochemistry, biomedicine and biotechnology (3B), and there is an urgent need for an alternative, cheap, easy to produce, fast and effective method in these fields. MIPs stand out as a promising way for th ...More
